    Hey TW members. Just got my slinders today and about to install them in the morning, the question is are these things post to be this heavy! Man almost pulled my back lifting these things off the ground! Guessing each weighs around 80lbs!:ballchain::. Now worried I'am loading too much weight on this truck.

    Don't sweat it op, we'll answer your question, given the payload capacity that our trucks have, 160lbs is not going to make a difference really, If you're worried about shocks, most of us ditch the stock ones and run something like the Bilstein 5100's once we start getting into hanging stuff on the truck.

    Yeah installed icon's last month and running 295/70/17 toyo mt killed my mpg!!! Getting 260 per tank now. Worried going over board with these sliders and plated front and rear bumpers on this build. Maybe lucky getting 200 per tank! LOL......
